He really is. I know some septuagenarians who are in good shape for their age, but even they would be hard pressed to run for it without a good warm-up.

Thank you. I agree I should listen to what other women are saying. Some people are less sensitive to change, overall. I don’t really like losing control of my body, and at this point, it’s pretty much doing its own thing. I’m in my thirties and live a pretty stable life where I have been free to do anything I want…

I’m a little late to the party, but I just want to say I’m really glad you mentioned restless legs. I am in week 9 and pretty much thought I was going crazy. It didnt even occur to me that it it might be due to the pregnancy. I haven’t had RLS since my last growing spurt during puberty, but yesterday I found myself on…

Yep. Fine, 1906 was a good while ago. 1969 on the other hand? That’s basically yesterday.

I’m so sorry. I’m living the same thing right now, but comfort myself with the fact that my dads’ youngest child is 28. 6 and 9 is very rough. Take care of them, but most importantly, take care of yourself.

This scene is so heartbreaking and honestly, I always liked Rickman a lot, but the horribleness of his character in Love Actually have kind of bled over into my appreciation of him. A testament to his talent.

I feel you - I think you’re doing the right thing. My mom also has it and she gets the same thing constantly. Turmeric I’ve heard, also rosehip (sooo much talk about rosehip) and the gluten free/dairy free thing seems to be huge for RA, but at least it’s been a while since someone suggested we go the holistic way.

Everything I ever did in home ec was either ugly or disgusting. Kids have no sense of quality, as the saying goes. I was still really proud of my effort, though, and now I bake, cook and sew like a somewhat proficient adult.

How did your school get away with that? I’m thinking back to when I worked in a middle-school and our home ec -teacher had to basically morally justify every single expense. Not that that is a good thing, I don’t think it was, but she would never have gotten away with things like pre-made cookie dough because of the…

Ha! Yes, this is good advice. I am really afraid that tired mommy will be “yes” mommy, so it’s probably good to get a head start.

Just put them in your checked luggage and think about all the lovely purse space you’ll be saving.

I know, but I’m concerned about the 24-7 thing. At least in my days (ugh), it was only 30 minutes each weekday and an hour each weekend morning. No kid could demand to see more because there simply weren’t any.

4 bucks? Ah, to live in the US. Here we spend 11 dollars on them just because they are trendy and have pretty packaging that’s instantly recognizable.

Okay, I finally found someone to talk abut vaseline packages with...

Same here! I’m a little worried, actually. When I was a kid, cartoons (or kids tv in general) were limited to a few hours a week and heavily curated by professionals. When my little fetus-thing is old enough, I will have to monitor, choose and limit his or her intake.

Yes, even more importantly - your doctor will tell you to eat more vegetables and exercise! You can probably trust him, but if you don’t - go see another licensed doctor!

Holy fucking god, that’s just about the worst thing I’ve ever heard. I hope that person gets sent away for a long, long time.

Yep, also in Europe and I can’t go to my primary care practitioner without having to spend time in the waiting room watching either show. It’s ironic, I go there to get actual, adequate, empirically sound health care, and Oz is blathering on about raspberry ketones curing everything under the sun at such a volume that…

True enough, yes. But also, think of the Mexicans - do we really think they deserve this boy-twat?

Always glad to be of service:) It’s not that weird now that I know the origin of it, to be honest. I get that it has to do with an awakening . It just wasn’t the first thing I thought about, especially since the quiz featured coffee and sleep patterns...
